Because SASSA will be operating with other institutions to verify the data posted by applicants, each applicant will need to sign a declaration and consent form.

The R350 Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant application period is still open and will end in March of next year. One of the most common methods is to submit an SRD grant application online.

In response to Covid-19 and its economic impact, the South African government established a new Sassa grant known as the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant, also known colloquially as the R350 grant.

Before applying, applicants must ensure that they meet the following qualifying requirements:

Citizens of South Africa/permanent residents/refugees/asylum seekers/holders of special permits
Unemployed
Have no other means of earning a living or receiving financial support.
Between the ages of 18 and 60, no other social grants, UIF, or NSFAS are received.
